Electronic Engineering Technology is a technological field requiring the application of scientific and engineering knowledge and methods, combined with technical skills, in support of engineering activities. An electronic engineering technologist is a person who is knowledgeable in electronics theory and design and who understands state-of-the-art practices on digital and analog circuits and systems. Computers, controls/ automation, robotics, instrumentation, and communications are just a few fields open to engineering technologists.
The program strives to prepare students for entry into the technical workforce with well developed skills. In particular, the department strives to ensure that its graduates have an ability to:

Apply knowledge of science, mathematics, and engineering.

Design, and conduct experiments as well as analyze and interpret data.

Design a system, component, or process to meet specified needs.

Function effectively in teams.

Identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.

Have an understanding of professional and ethical responsibilities.

Communicate effectively.

The Electronic Engineering Technology program is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org.
